## Abstract (arXiv)

We are introducing Aligned, a platform for global governance and alignment of frontier models, and eventually superintelligence. While previous efforts at the major AI labs have attempted to gather inputs for alignment, these are often conducted behind closed doors. We aim to set the foundation for a more trustworthy, public-facing approach to safety: a constitutional committee framework. Initial tests with 680 participants result in a 30-guideline constitution with 93% overall support. We show the platform naturally scales, instilling confidence and enjoyment from the community. We invite other AI labs and teams to plug and play into the Aligned ecosystem.
